WBUF 100,000 watts

Yesterday while listening to Jack the voice guy said somthing like "Jack is a 100,000 watt radio party" . I didnt realize BUF was a 100,000 watt station, I thought WBUF was only 92,000 watts of flip flopping power!
 
Maybe it's a "100,000-watt equvilant".

WBUF-92.9 may be 92,000 watts because the HAAT (height above average terrain) of their antenna may be a little higher than what is allowed to run a full 100,000 watts. Hence, ERP (effective radiated power) is lower.
